THE SPACE BETWEEN THINGS: Forthcoming exhibition at Autograph ABP (@autographabp) of Phoebe Boswell’s latest body of work on the 14th of December. A Black Girl MeetUp will be taking place on the 10th of January 2019 to view Boswell’s work, so if you’re a black woman and want to get together with other black women, click the link in my bio to register interest. // —— About the exhibition taken from Autograph’s website: “A life-altering series of events serve as the genesis for Kenyan-British artist Phoebe Boswell’s new work: an emotive interrogation of trauma, healing, and the poetics of endurance. // Boswell’s multidisciplinary art practice is anchored to a restless state of diasporic consciousness. She creates layered, deeply immersive installations to centre and amplify histories which - like her own - are often systemically marginalised. // In The Space Between Things, Boswell reflects on the rupture of her physical, spiritual, and emotional health. Using her art-making to explore a landscape of grief, she invites us to bear witness to a journey of recovery and possible renewal.” // —— #upcoming | #exhibition | #phoebeboswell | #autograph | #multidisciplinary | #art | #blackwomenart | #f3mininja | #blackgirlmeetup |
